- Post placement support of Rs. 1500 per month per trainee is applicable for special groups and special areas for 2 or 3 month post training depending on placement within or outside the district of the domicile of the candidate.
- Re-allocation of targets to TPs is based on placement achievements of previous allocated targets.
